Name: Graylent Species: Rat Gender: Male Age: 39 seasons Weapons: Large battleaxe, along with metallic armor and shoulder pads on his right arm. Personality: Greylent lives in the moment: Today's enemy is an enemy, and today's friend is a friend. He is usually willing to change allegiances at the snap of a finger, depending on the situation, and the outcome for him. He is a fierce fighter, but not a bloodthirsty imbecile, contrary to what most beasts believe due to his appearance. However, he is not very intelligent, but likes a large tankard of anything alcoholic every now and then Appearance: Graylent is a grizzled old searat, but has forgotten his old seafaring ways. His fur, like his name suggests, is a very dark shade of gray, and he has some silver hairs as a small beard. He wears a tight red tunic with two crisscrossing black straps travelling around the tunic. These straps are embedded with small dark pebbles. He also has a looped earring on one ear Occupation: He leads a small band of other creatures called the 'Druze' History: Graylent was born into a tribe of rats who were renowned for their abnormal size and strength. At a young age, he also displayed this strong growth. However, after realizing what his tribe were capable of doing to other beasts, he ran away from his life and started a new one. Affiliation: Neutral, depending on the situation

Name: Forbane Species: Fox Gender: Male Age: 62 seasons Weapons: Forbane carries no weapons Personality: Forbane is soft spoken, beneficent, and very wise as well. He is old and frail, and was never trained in the ways of war and combat, rather sheltered from his surrounding environment and protected throughout his young life. However, he knows many battle techniques, and is a great creature to go to for advice regarding almost anything Appearance: When he stands, he has a hunched posture, due to his old age. His fur is a light orange color. However, his four paws are of a more brown-orange tinge, and his snout shares the same color. His underbelly and some patches on his fur are a light beige color. He wears a tan-colored, tattered cloak that covers his head, but has slits for his ears. This makeshift cloak is tied about his waist by a yellow cloth Occupation: He is a part of the 'Druze' tribe, and the old advice giver History: Forbane was an old friend of Graylent's, when the large rat left his old tribe. He became Graylent's mentor, teaching him in the ways of meditation and peace, rather than war. However, his attempts to change Graylent usually never worked, but he remained with the rat anyway. His personal life included him witnessing the murder of his family, which did not cause him to become bloodthirsty and out for revenge, rather he set out on a mission to find peace and prosperity Affiliation: He attempts to get Graylent to do what is right in any situation

Name: Hooktooth Species: Ferret Gender: Male Age: 25 seasons Weapons: Hooktooth carries a staff with a large curved blade on the end of it, to make it look like a pike with a curved scimitar as the blade. He also has sharp metal finger extensions that are placed on his fingers like cones. These can slash opponents, and are as sharp as a wildcat's claws Personality: Hooktooth is a bit rash and battle hungry, but can make friends with others quite fast. He is also very aggressive and a good leader in the eyes of his mates. Being in Graylent's group also added to Hooktooth's personality, who decided to follow in Graylent's footsteps, rather than Forbane's. At one point, he developed too much of a bloodlust for battle, causing a permanent shift in his personality, making him go partially insane. With treatment from Forbane, he was able to recover, but was still never the same Appearance: Hooktooth only has a thin fur lining, and the color varies between different shades of black and brown. However, his snout is completely white. He also has a small looped golden earring on one ear. A red cloth sash is looped about his body diagonally, and is tied about his waist in a large knot. His body has many scars and patches of raw skin where the fur never grew back, due to the fire that had engulfed his ship at a young age Occupation: He is under the lead of Graylent History: Hooktooth was raised in a hidden cove off the coast of Salamandastron, and was taught to be a corsair from his father. However, his parents died while on a ship that had caught fire at sea in an accident. His charred body was found on the shore by Graylent and Forbane, who took him in and raised him, healing his wounds. He stayed with them and wandered Mossflower with them for a long time, even after his near encounter with death from his Bloodwrath frenzy. Affiliation: His main instinct is to kill woodlanders, but sometimes, Forbane is able to placate him
